Abstract

In the area of financial education it is important to link training content to its function and receivers, and to realize a coherent and useful format.The topics of financial education have to be related to specific areas and situations and to welldefined needs. The trainers need to understand how to make immediately accessible, and therefore useful, the concepts learned and what formats are best suited to minimize the semantic barriers and rejection episodes of training.
